Trumka video on Obama shooting up YouTube's all time chart

There is a brain and conscience in America
I usually expect the latest American Idol, Britney Spears crotch, or whatever flavor this month is to be the top of YouTube, glad to be proven wrong

From Tula Connel at the AFL-CIO Now blog:

AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Trumka Video Topping YouTube Charts

A quick update on the huge—and growing—popularity of the speech by AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Richard Trumka in which he addressed the issue of race in this election. Trumka’s speech at the United Steelworkers convention in July went viral a couple of weeks ago and has generated a national debate on race, the economy and the elections.

Since then, the video clip of Trumka’s speech on YouTube has received nearly 400,000 views and now is rated YouTube’s 79th all-time, top-rated videos in the news and politics category.

If you’ve seen it already, you know it’s worth watching again.

It's a great powerful video, take a look if you have a couple of minutes, give it a rating while your there.

Remember, while the main stream media chooses not to cover labor news, they haven't been able to stop YouTube, yet.
